Do I assume the mls measure and then enter it? As in enter 60mls as 60g or will that foul things up and give me the wrong information if I used a different quantity?

Thanks,

Do you still have the label? It should state the weight, either in grams or ounces (the tool will soon allow ounces in addition to grams).

The reason it cannot accept cups, is that cups differ in weight. Acup of lettuce is much lighter than a cup of oil, etc.

You can still enter a cup, but the tool needs to know how much the cup weighs.
